V m\u00edstn\u00ed nemocnici byl Alex p\u0159ijat l\u00e9ka\u0159kou Marisou Liu, zku\u0161enou pediatri\u010dkou zn\u00e1mou svou klidnost\u00ed a preciznost\u00ed. Kdy\u017e vstoupila do m\u00edstnosti, Alex sed\u011bl skr\u010den\u00fd na posteli, dr\u017eel se za ucho, zat\u00edmco mu po tv\u00e1\u0159i st\u00e9kaly slzy.

Vzala otoskop a pod\u00edvala se do ucha. V\u00fdraz na jej\u00ed tv\u00e1\u0159i se okam\u017eit\u011b zm\u011bnil. Na chv\u00edli se st\u00e1hla zp\u011bt, a pot\u00e9 se znovu naklonila.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M\u00edstnost ztichla. Zdravotn\u00ed sestry se p\u0159ibl\u00ed\u017eily, Emma zbledla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
